Eyre did well to very win here on debut. She was quickly away and soon crossed to the lead. She then settled well in front, grabbed a break on passing the 200m and then fought back gamely to score by half a length, putting up a good effort at her first start. Ming was handily placed in third but she trapped deep without cover. She got to second at the 100m and battled on well to hold that position after working most of the race. The top weight Donelle raced outside the leader to the turn and kept fighting on in the straight for third at her first run since fourth in the Kindergarten Stakes at Randwick in April. *ANZ
